Hello, and welcome!

This is a doujinshi (fan comic) based on Tezuka Osamu's incredible manga "Black Jack". This doujinshi's main focus is the relationship of Black Jack and his Childhood friend, Makube Rokuro (Rock).
Don't expect a great story or surgery (except for one art page) as I'm no Tezuka. XD;
But I do hope you all enjoy this comic!

NOTE: ROOTS is set before Black Jack and Makube's reunion in "Proof Print", one of the many short stories from Tezuka Osamu's "Black Jack" manga. Those who haven't the chance to read "Black Jack" and "Proof Print" will probably find this pretty confusing to read. Another note, Makube calls Black Jack by his real name, "Kuro". One of the only few characters in the manga who knows and calls Black Jack by that name.
